And then there were nun

The Catholic population of the United Kingdom is growing in leaps and bounds on the strength on Eastern European immigrants, largely from Poland. However the church is suffering from a staff shortage to serve them. This is especially true of the number of nuns who now number less than 1,110 and are aging rapidly. Perhaps market forces which are competing in the marketplace for young, female virgins to serve as houris for the legions of Islamic martyrs are causing the church to come up short.

Any volunteers?
